Jack--we cannot believe that you are gone. We will always remember sitting on the Lanai in Florida watching people go by and "solving" problems while sitting there. You loved walking on the beach and sending oranges to family and friends. So many memories - we will always cherish them. When we are sitting on "Jack's Lanai" next year, send us a sign so we know you are still there with us. Rest in peace, brother. We love and miss you. Love, Harold and Shirley

Uncle Jackie it doesnt seem fair to us that you are gone. You were always such a kindloving spirit and one of the best of friends to my grandfather. I prolly will always sit in his house waiting to hear your footsteps on the stoop as you open the door and ask "what are u doing here brat?". I love you more than words can express and thank you for everything you have done for me and my family.

Uncle Jackie it doesn't seem real or even fair that you have been taken from us. You were always such a big part of my life and my childrens lives. I'm so grateful that I was able to tell you how much you meant to me and how much I love you before it was to late. Even though your not right here next to me I know God couldn't have given us a greater guardian angel. Rest in peace. I Love You with all my heart.
